Description

This is the 3D print file for a solar filter that fits a 80.5mm Outside Diameter (O.D.) telescope. An additional 2mm is added to accommodate the felt tape that is placed on the inside of the solar film cap, so the actual Inside Diameter will be 82.5mm. Make sure you measure the widest part of the telescope! Some have a ring at the front that is slightly larger than the tube.

This model was designed for the William Optics RedCat51, but will fit other scopes with the same O.D.
